why would we come to washington? some of these people -- this obama guy has tons of influence. so we all have influence. you can think about that, we all have an equal influence, and the court rejected that idea. increasingly, because the court has rejected the equality rationale, or form arguments -- reform arguments which are primarily in my view at least at the academic level based on equality themselves, or disguise themselves in the corruption argument, and as a result they further confuse. they talk about it being corruptive. when you look at that actual legislation where ideas get ground into legislation, oftentimes equality all has something to do with it. we have to stand by your ad provision. brad smith and i approve this message because you idiots could not figure out that the campaign was approved by me. that is how i would do my disclaimer if i were running. which is why i don't run. why was that there? the congressional record is very clear. they thought it would reduce the attack ads on them, reduce negative adds, and you saw a lot of back in the mccain- feingold

"usa today" claims a leaked draft proposal circulating throughout various departments would allow for illegal immigrants to obtain green cards within eight years. it also calls for increased border patrol funding, and expanded e-verify system so businesses can check employees' legal status. republicans didn't hesitate to voice their discontent. republican marco rubio released a statement saying "if actually proposed, the pr
